Abstract
Developing self-powered and flexible optoelectronic sensors with high responsivity and speed is crucial for modern applications, motivating continuous efforts to enhance their performance. Flexo-phototronics is a less-explored but promising technique to elevate the performance of optoelectronics. Therefore, this work addresses the potential of utilizing the flexo-phototronic effect to enhance the performance of a flexible and self-powered ultraviolet photodetector (UV PD) based on ZnAl:LDH (layered double hydroxides) nanosheets (Ns)/NiO heterostructure. The vertically oriented ZnAl:LDH Ns are synthesized via a simple method involving the immersion of a sputtered 10% Al-doped ZnO thin film in deionized water at room ambient conditions. The fabricated PD exhibits an impressive response to 365 nm UV light, with high sensitivity in the order of 103. The device's photocurrent and responsivity are significantly enhanced by the flexo-phototronic effect, attributed to the flexoelectric properties of ZnAl:LDH Ns. Specifically, applying an inhomogeneous tensile strain of 2% boosted the device responsivity by 57.1% and improved its operational speed. Furthermore, a working model revealing the altered energy-band structure is demonstrated to elucidate the flexo-phototronic-induced boost in the photoresponse. The PD also demonstrated a sustainable performance under severe bending cycles, underlining the good flexibility of the device. The results presented in this study demonstrate a self-powered and flexible UV PD and provide a viable approach to augment the performance of optoelectronics through the flexo-phototronic effect.

Abstract
Recently, layered rare-earth hydroxides (LRHs) have received growing attention in the field of theranostics. We have previously reported the hydrothermal synthesis of layered terbium hydroxide (LTbH), which exhibited high biocompatibility, reversible uptake of a range of model drugs, and release-sensitive phosphorescence. Despite these favourable properties, LTbH particles produced by the reported method suffered from poor size-uniformity (670 ± 564 nm), and are thus not suitable for therapeutic applications. To ameliorate this issue, we first derive an optimised hydrothermal synthesis method to generate LTbH particles with a high degree of homogeneity and reproducibility, within a size range appropriate for in vivo applications (152 ± 59 nm, n = 6). Subsequently, we apply this optimised method to synthesise a selected range of LRH materials (R = Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy, Er, Yb), four of which produced particles with an average size under 200 nm (Pr, Nd, Gd, and Dy) without the need for further optimisation. Finally, we incorporate Gd and Tb into LRHs in varying molar ratios (1 : 3, 1 : 1, and 3 : 1) and assess the combined magnetic relaxivity and phosphorescence properties of the resultant LRH materials. The lead formulation, LGd1.41Tb0.59H, was demonstrated to significantly shorten the T2 relaxation time of water (r2 = 52.06 mM-1 s-1), in addition to exhibiting a strong phosphorescence signal (over twice that of the other LRH formulations, including previously reported LTbH), therefore holding great promise as a potential multi-modal medical imaging probe.

Abstract
Gas sensors are crucial in environmental monitoring, industrial safety, and medical diagnostics. Due to the rising demand for precise and reliable gas detection, there is a rising demand for cutting-edge gas sensors that possess exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. Due to their tunable electrical properties, high-density surface-active sites, and significant surface-to-volume ratio, nanomaterials have been extensively investigated in this regard. The traditional gas sensors utilize homogeneous material for sensing where the adsorbed surface oxygen species play a vital role in their sensing activity. However, their performance for selective gas sensing is still unsatisfactory because the employed high temperature leads to the poor stability. The heterostructures nanomaterials can easily tune sensing performance and their different energy band structures, work functions, charge carrier concentration and polarity, and interfacial band alignments can be precisely designed for high-performance selective gas sensing at low temperature. In this review article, we discuss in detail the fundamentals of semiconductor gas sensing along with their mechanisms. Further, we highlight the existed challenges in semiconductor gas sensing. In addition, we review the recent advancements in semiconductor gas sensor design for applications from different perspective. Finally, the conclusion and future perspectives for improvement of the gas sensing performance are discussed.

Abstract
The detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is an important topic for environmental safety and public health. However, the current commercial VOC detectors suffer from cross-sensitivity and low reproducibility. In this work, we present species-selective detection for VOCs using an electrochemical cell based on ionic liquid (IL) electrolytes with features of high selectivity and reliability. The voltammograms measured with the IL-based electrolyte absorbing different VOCs exhibited species-selective features that were extracted and classified by linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The detection system could identify as many as four types of VOCs, including methanol, ethanol, acetone, formaldehyde, and additional water. A mixture of methanol and formaldehyde was detected as well. The sample required for the VOCs classification system was 50 μL, or 1.164 mmol, on average. The response time for each VOC measurement is as fast as 24 s. The volume of VOCs such as formaldehyde in solution could also be quantified by LDA and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques, respectively. The system showed a tunable detection range for 1.6 and 16% (w/v) CH2O solution by adjusting the composition of the electrolyte. The limit of detection was as low as 1 μL. For the 1.6% CH2O solution, the linearity calibration range was determined to be from 5.30 to 53.00 μmol with a limit of detection at 0.53 μmol. The mechanisms for VOCs determination and quantification are also thoroughly discussed. It is expected that this work could provide a new insight into the concept of electrochemical detection of VOCs with machine learning analysis and be applied to both VOCs gas monitoring and fluid detection.

Abstract
Due to miscellaneous toxic gases in the vicinity, there is a burgeoning need for advancement in the existing gas sensing technology not only for the survival of mankind but also for the industries based in various fields such as beverage, forestry, health care, environmental monitoring, agriculture, and military security. A gas sensor must be highly selective toward a specific gas in order to avoid incorrect signals while responding to nontarget gases. This may lead to complex scenarios depicting sensor defects, such as low selectivity and cross-sensitivity. Therefore, a multiplex gas sensor is required to address the problems of cross selectivity by combining different gas sensors, signal processing, and pattern recognition techniques along with the currently employed gas sensing technologies. The different sensing materials used in these sensor arrays will produce a unique response signal for developing a set of identifiers as the input that can be used to recognize a specific gas by its "fingerprint". This review provides a comprehensive review of chemiresistive-based multiplex gas sensors, including various fabrication strategies from expensive to low-cost techniques, advances in sensing materials, and a gist of various pattern recognition techniques used for both rigid and flexible gas sensor applications. Finally, the review assesses the current state-of-the-art in multiplex gas sensor technology and discusses various challenges for future research in this direction.

Abstract
The special physicochemical properties of Bi2S3 nanomaterial endow it to be exceptional NO2 sensing properties. However, sensors based on pure Bi2S3 cannot detect trace NO2 at room temperature effectively due to the scanty active sites and poor charge transfer efficiency. Herein, vacancy defect and heterostructure engineering are rationally integrated to explore BiOCl/Bi2S3-x heterostructure with rich S vacancies to enhance NO2 sensing performance. The optimized sensor based on S-vacancy-rich BiOCl/Bi2S3-x heterostructure exhibited a high response value (Rg/Ra = 29.1) to 1 ppm NO2 at room temperature, which was about 17 times compared to the pristine Bi2S3. Meanwhile, the BiOCl/Bi2S3-x sensor also exhibited a short response time (36 s) towards 1 ppm NO2 and a low theoretical detection limit (2 ppb). The superior response value of S-vacancy-rich BiOCl/Bi2S3-x heterostructures was ascribed to the improved electron migration at the heterointerface and the additional exposed active sites caused by the S vacancies in Bi2S3-x. Additionally, the sensors based on S-vacancy-rich BiOCl/Bi2S3-x heterostructures showed good long-term stability, outstanding selectivity, and good flexibility. This study offers an effective method for synergistically engineering defect and heterostructure to enhance gas sensing properties at room temperature.

Abstract
2D-2D lattice engineering route is used to synthesize intimately coupled nanohybrids of layered double hydroxide (LDH) and potassium hexaniobate. The 2D-2D lattice engineering route is based on the electrostatically derived self-assembly of delaminated zinc-chromium-layered double hydroxide (ZC-LDH) nanosheets and potassium hexaniobate (HNb) nanosheets (ZCNb nanohybrids). The 2D-2D lattice-engineered ZCNb nanohybrids display expanded surface area, mesoporous anchored nanosheets network morphology, and intimate coupling between nanosheets. The 2D-2D lattice engineered ZCNb nanohybrids are used for the low temperature operated gas sensor. The ZCNb nanohybrids display outstanding selectivity for the SO2, with the high response of 61.5% compared to pristine ZC-LDH (28.08%) and potassium niobate (8%) at 150 °C. Moreover, ZCNb sensors demonstrate superior response and recovery periods of 6 and 167 s at 150 °C, respectively. This result underscores the exceptional functionality of the ZCNb nanohybrids as efficient SO2 sensors. Moreover, these findings vividly demonstrate that the 2D-2D lattice-engineered ZCNb nanohybrids are quite effective not only in improving the gas sensor activity but also in developing of new type of intimately coupled mesoporous LDH-metal-oxide based hybrid materials.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have attracted considerable attention as promising materials for electrochemical and optical sensors owing to their excellent catalytic properties, facile synthesis strategies, highly tunable morphology, and versatile hosting ability. LDH-based electrochemical sensors are affordable alternatives to traditional precious-metal-based sensors, as LDHs can be synthesized from abundant inorganic precursors. LDH-modified probes can directly catalyze or host catalytic compounds that facilitate analyte redox reactions, detected as changes in the probe's current, voltage, or resistance. The porous and lamellar structure of LDHs allows rapid analyte diffusion and abundant active sites for enhanced sensor sensitivity. LDHs can be composed of conductive materials such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO) or metal nanoparticles for improved catalytic activity and analyte selectivity. As optical sensors, LDHs provide a spacious, stable structure for synergistic guest-host interactions. LDHs can immobilize fluorophores, chemiluminescence reactants, and other spectroscopically active materials to reduce the aggregation and dissolution of the embedded sensor molecules, yielding enhanced optical responses and increased probe reusability. This review discusses standard LDH synthesis methods and overviews the different electrochemical and optical analysis techniques. Furthermore, the designs and modifications of exemplary LDHs and LDH composite materials are analyzed, focusing on the analytical performance of LDH-based sensors for key biomarkers and pollutants, including glucose, dopamine (DA), H2O2, metal ions, nitrogen-based toxins, and other organic compounds.
